Every month on the first Sunday, the Bowers Museum, located in Santa Ana, allows free admission and hosts a cultural festival, sponsored by Target. Each event features arts & crafts, live music, dance performances, and food specific to the celebrated culture of the month. This “Daily Foto Fix” is from their June event, which celebrated […]

We’ve all had the joyful experience of spotting images in the clouds…”Hey, that one looks like a bunny, see the fluffy tail?!” When I’m on a photography outing, I find myself looking for noticeable shapes in different objects. One day, while on a relaxing, post-rain walk at the Fullerton Arboretum, thinking about my wonderful boyfriend, […]

Rain-moistened oranges seem appropriate for today’s foto fix, because…. it rained in SoCal today! Yes, it’s been awhile since water fell from the sky here. Everyone’s glad, particularly traffic reporters on the radio. Their jobs aren’t in jeopardy on days like this. Why? Because many in Southern California don’t know how to drive with wet […]

If you ever have an opportunity to visit Disneyland on your own, without the intention of getting on every ride…to just stroll along Main Street, and check out all the design details…do it! Right now, everything is gorgeously decorated for Fall; the park looks magnificent! With hundreds of uniquely hand-carved pumpkins (no two look alike!) […]

This large wall art adorns a building in downtown Los Angeles. I was totally fascinated by it and wish I knew artist’s name. Pic by SueBee.

Randomly stopped by Old Town Orange with a friend to snap a few shots with the Nikon. I love the Vintage atmosphere of the town! We started off with a traditional hamburger and fries lunch at a 50’s style diner called Watson’s Drug Store, then explored the numerous antique shops and boutiques. Such a fun […]

Long Beach, the coastal microcosm of Los Angeles, gathers it all together and spits it back out seaside. There’s the trendy shops and restaurants, hustling/bustling bars, and crazy parking along 2nd Street, the gritty docks and harbors, the literal long beach with an extended ped/bike path fighting to overcome the sand, a super supportive gay-friendly […]

Being born in a city like Los Angeles brings a certain distinction. Well, to me anyway. Knowing the hospital where I made my entrance to this great world now sits under the 110 freeway in downtown, is rather symbolic considering the hours I’ve passed on that freeway. One further random tidbit, my first job out […]

Nikon D5100s in tow, the streets of Hollywood beckon often – subject matter for a camera buff is literally without end. If you’re up for some real fun, though, you have to check out Nick Metropolis. As Nick’s website says: “Nick Metropolis has been buying, selling, renting and consigning collectible furniture, or “collectable” as Nick […]
